Seems to fit. You can search with it and get a mess of answers, constant evolution (pc, laptop, phones, watches), very easy to blame the computer ("this thing is so slow!"), it keeps score and tracks your 'quests' in a monitor while playing games, and finally because a user (student of a computer) can become a developer (teacher of computers).

$\begingroup$You're thinking in the right direction, but the answer I have in mind fits closely throughout the riddle. It should be an obvious "yes" once it's found.$\endgroup$
